Empire Created by: DOCT0R CHAOS Map Description: An open top Greek architecture themed court built in the caverns of Erosion. Currently the spawning is set to matchmaking style. This may be classified as an "abnormal" design as there are no traditional wall hops and all four wall are intentionally not smooth/bumpless to add to the 3D qualities of the design.

Good or bad
Map looks awesome! Grifball is a blast to play, and I can't wait to get some games on this!!! That said, I think this post would be better fit for the Halo 4 Social Maps thread. The Halo 4 Standard Maps thread is specifically for the more competative gametypes (Slayer, CTF, Oddball, etc.). Welcome to ForgeHub!!!
I agree that this probably belongs in social, but nonetheless, this is a pretty awesome map. I love the aesthetics. For one, it's on Erosion which makes it difficult to make a good looking map on but you pulled it off really well. Great job
I like the aesthetics of this design. I would say overall it looks well conceived, but I would like to point out from the 4/5 screenshots that there is some inconsistencies with the placement of the struts. You can also see it in screen shot six. That is my only critique, judging by the shots. Other than that my hat is off to you. Nice work. CrimsonVolver
Oh, wait, one more thing. At the top you have minimum and maximum number of players set at 4. I believe it should be min 4, max 8. CrimsonVolver.
Thanks Crimson. The struts are intentionally askew in two locations. It is intended to look as though the rocks are collapsing onto the walls causing the distortion in the walls. It makes more sense if you look at it from ground level in a game. I also love the lighting I got by placing the court in this location. Hard to do in Erosion.
Yeah I noticed that right after I posted it. It was my first post and I guess I overlooked it. I can't fix that by editing but if a staff member could adjust it to minimum 4 maximum 8 I would be forever grateful.
Nice job on the map. I know how hard it is to make a good looking map on Erosion, especially a Griffball court. I remember seeing this a while back and it had broken lighting and had a few FR issues from all the pieces outside of the actual court. Did you fix those things or did you leave the lighting broken to make the map that bright? Either way the map looks great; I'm just kinda curious. Oh and you can actually do that yourself by editing the initial post and click the advanced editor at the bottom of the box.
I actually moved the entire court piece by piece 4 increment in one direction to solve the lighting issue. It sucked! LOL
